- Inorganic Trace Minerals: A Hit-or-Miss Approach
- Calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, cobalt are required by livestock to develop proper bone and muscle, carbohydrate digestion and metabolism, breeding, reproductive performance, and enhance immunity.
- Each macro/trace mineral needs an organic “escort” before it gets absorbed in the animal’s digestive tract.
- Unfortunately, many macro/trace minerals become attached to unwanted agents and excreted as waste.
- Some dietary constituents such as calcium, phosphates, phytates, oxalates, or fiber may interfere with absorption by forming unavailable complexes with trace minerals fed in organic form.
- Benefits of Mineralate™ Amino Acid Chelates
NuTech BioSciences Inc. uses glycine, an organic amino acid compound with the formula NH2CH2COOH having only two hydrogen atoms as its “side chain.” Glycine is the smallest of the 20 amino acids commonly found in proteins. Glycine is a colorless, sweet-tasting crystalline soild. It is unique among the proteinogenic amino acids in that it is not chiral. It can fit into hydrophilic or hydrophobic environments due to its two hydrogen atom side chain.
- Requirements for Chelates
- Small molecular size < 800 Daltons
- Defined amino acid
- 1 : 1 Molar Ratio
- Heterocyclic ring formations
